Doug Martin back at practice. Praise the fantasy gods.

 

[youngplaya21]

Wonder how many people aren't submitting waiver claims tonight because of other stuff going on lol

I'm starting to wonder, although I may be crazy. Picked up Kelley and Rawls as both went unclaimed in my 12 man league

Shit, I wish I had known this BEFORE I dropped Flacco. I coulda dropped Barber instead. Oh well.

 

[DKehoe]

I picked up Gostkowski as he was free agent. I'm fairly new to the NFL but am I missing something here? I get that he isn't in the best form but was surprised to see him available. I have still kept Nick Novak who has been pretty consistent but am I ok to drop him now I have Gostkowski?

Who knows if he comes back this week honestly. They might be extra careful and hold him out until next week.

Don't worry about it too much. Kickers are about as hit or miss as they come.

Pats were on a bye so most likely scenario was he didn't have anyone else to drop. And Gostkowski hasn't exactly been great this year. You should be fine with Gost though.

He has been pretty meh this year. Not really bad but not hitting the high expectations for his level of kicker. Though he should be fine though for rest of the year.

I've got Eagles D. Should I roll with them against ATL hoping for turnovers or pick up another team off waivers? These are my other options:
- Cowboys
- Dolphins
- Texans
- Redskins
- Bears

as someone who has the eagles defense on their bench, i think you'd have to have very big balls to play them against the falcons

I picked up the redskins-I have no confidence in their defense but the vikings offense is so bad that i'm taking the gamble

Redskins should be a good stream this week.

I might be jumping off the philly D this week since the Chiefs are on waivers. If I dont get them then I just plan to holding onto Philly for rest of season but maybe bench them this week.

 

[sf2fanatic]

Need two from these

Nuk
DeVante Adams
Jordan Matthews




lol Kicker question but they're two high pt kickers

Bryant or Tucker

 

[Crazymoogle]

I have no hesitation playing Eagles DST this week. It's basically the best part of their football team right now.

Who gives a crap if Atlanta scores four touchdowns? Oh well, you miss out on the score for points against. But this team is just eating opponents alive with turnovers and sacks.

I understand the apprehension, and if you can find a defense with a great matchup, go for it. But I'm fine riding the Eagles this week

Spoiler

and praying they don't get to Freeman

Nuk and Adams is who I would probably play. But I wouldnt be shocked if people said Adams and Matthews since Nuk has been god awful so far with Brock...I just hope after a bye week they set things straight.


Honestly throw a coin up in the air for the kicker...either one of them is good. Do you believe in thursday night fuckball enough to kick the game up? I maybe like Bryant more because I trust their offense more but then again that could lead to less Field Goals.

Yeah people seem to forget that Def in fantasy make their living off those sacks and turnovers. One of the reasons why the titans are decent because they get so many sacks per game.

I think next year, if I run a league again, I'm just gonna take PA out for DEF.

Not saying they are bad, still maybe a top 5 defense this year fantasy wise...just a bad matchup this week.

 

[panthapanda]

Woohoo Doug Martin practiced!

 

[-SG]

Pick 2: Prosise, Harris, Ivory. FML.

 

[Crazymoogle]

Pick 2: Prosise, Harris, Ivory. FML.

DuJuan Harris baby!!! Good chance he starts again this week. It's the Cardinals, but hey, the Niners will be all offense and catchup again.

Ivory gets the Texans (ugh) and Yeldon is healthy. He would be the #2 choice but yeah, not exciting
You saw the Seahawks running game last week.

 

[Tom Nook]

Woohoo Doug Martin practiced!

I doubt he plays this week. Hope he goes 100% on week 11.

RB crops: Zeke, JStew, D Martin, A Morris, Starks. If needed a replacement outside of a RB, Starks can be dropped.

 

[PandaPandaPanda]

at least you aren't having to decide whether or not to pick up and Play McKinnon, pick up and play Bibbs, or just desperation play Alfred Morris for ~2 points.

thanks carlos hyde

Yeah I wouldn't play him lol

 

[DKehoe]

Should I pick up Steve Smith Sr or Peyton Barber to play this week?

 

[Corran Horn]

Should I pick up Steve Smith Sr or Peyton Barber to play this week?

Barber if Doug Martin doesnt play. But that is still up in the air right now.

 

[HalfBakedProphet]

PPR league. Assuming Dion Lewis doesn't play this week...

Flex: James White or Cole Beasley?

 

[Soroc]

Should I drop Peyton Barber and pick up Dixon tonight? PPR league and hurting for a RB2 or Flex. Have DJ going and only other option besides Barber is Duke Johnson which I'm not sure I trust with Kessler in there.

 

[NateDrake]

Is Crowell and Steve Smith Sr. a good start tonight? I'm questioning it....

 

[natjjohn]

Is Crowell and Steve Smith Sr. a good start tonight? I'm questioning it....

I"m starting Steve SMith. Half point ppr.

Starting Pitta in another, but less confident about that one. Have no other options though.

Crowell I wouldn't feel good about at all, but he is a starting RB at least.

 

[Rad Shadow]

Way to go stevie!

 

[PandaPandaPanda]

Someone ended up dropping Peyton Barber this morning

Now the decision to drop eagles defense or alfred morris to plug in and play Barber in hopes that Martin doesn't play this weekend

 

[natjjohn]

Pick 3 out of thsi group. ppr; but also .2points per carry

Dion Lewis
James Starks
Deandre Hopkins
Sterling Shephard
Michael Thomas
Tyrell Williams

Thinking Hopkins, Shephard, and Williams. Thomas has been so good though.

Was thinking wait and see approach for Lewis and Starks.

Hopkins, Williams then a toss up between Thomas or Shepard. Thomas normally but he is going up against Denver and Cruz might not play for Giants which gets Shepard more targets.

 

[Tom Nook]

D. Martin will be active on Sunday.

Martin vs CHI
OR
Hightower vs DEN.

 

[NateDrake]

Bibbs at NO or Asiata at Washington for RB?

 

[DKehoe]

Since Martin will be active this week should I consider swapping out Peyton Barber for Sterling Shepard? I do already have Eli and OBJ in the team so I'm wondering if this will make me too reliant on the Giants. Seems like it could be a big boom/bust strategy

 

[gutshot]

Help me pick an RB2 out of this group!

Hightower
D. Lewis
Ivory

Ingram is my RB1, so I'm hesitant to roll the dice on both him and Hightower producing again, even though it's a nice matchup. Lewis could explode, but he could also be worked into the offense very slowly and only get a handful of touches. Ivory seems like the highest floor but also the lowest ceiling. Tough one.

 

[Striker]

With Jets starting Petty, I have gotten cautious over starting Forte. LA will stack the box. T. Montgomery is my other option.

 

[Dr.Horrible]

Sanu Britt or Z Miller for my flex spot?

 

[GrapeApes]

With Jets starting Petty, I have gotten cautious over starting Forte. LA will stack the box. T. Montgomery is my other option.

I'd probably start Forte. Starks might be coming back today. Who knows the split with Montgomery.

Just a follow up, another option I'm now looking at is DuJuan Harris. Anyone got a recommendation between those three I mentioned?

 

[HabeeNo]

J Witten or M.Sanu for my FLEX spot?

 

[ryan299]

Should I pick up Cutler to start over Cousins? Cousins has to face the Vikings.

 

[FTF]

J Witten or M.Sanu for my FLEX spot?

I'd lean towards Witten.

Should I pick up Cutler to start over Cousins? Cousins has to face the Vikings.

Flip a coin, but yeah I'd start Cutler.

 

[Beach]

Rashad Jennings or Tim Hightower for last starting spot
Roster is sad atm

 

[Joe]

2 missed FGs by Novak so far is going to haunt me tomorrow night isn't it

 

[PandaPandaPanda]

I knew it was a risk but I regret starting Carlos Hyde

 

[sf2fanatic]

I'm officially done with Nuk til the playoffs.

Benched Adams :'(

 

[PandaPandaPanda]

welp with that dez bryant td-I lost this week + 99% out of the playoffs

oh well

 

[panthapanda]

Damn looks like I'm going to be going into Monday down. Right now it'll be Odell, Edelman, and eifert vs Brady.

 

[Jarnet87]

Really wish Hogan hadn't been added to the injury list, couldn't take the chance on playing him without a replacement option. Kendall Wright got me the TD but I think Hogan has a good game against Seattle, think they will focus on trying to stop Gronk and Bennett.
